有时候我们收到的信用证规定：该信用证必须获得外汇主管当局的核准才能生效。

如：This credit will be operative solely when we get the authority permission that we have already requested. 或者This credit shall become operative only receipt by us the authorization to that effect of XXX Exchange Institution.二，受益人必须等到开证银行或者申请人另外通知后才能使该证。

有时候买家为了保证货物按时运抵目的港，或为了保证货物的只来年感，经常在信用证中规定，货物在抵达目的港后。

或经过检验后才能获得货款。

例如，Letter of copy or cable advice from XXX customers brokers or carrier certifying that the merchandise has arrived in XXX(目的港)，又如,Documents are to be delivered on trust receipt to the above account party for the purpose of arranging entry and inspection of the goods by the US Food and Drug Administration(做食品药品的注意) upon receipt a written statement from above account party to the effect that merchandise has been insoected and released the US Food and Drug Administration.The draft under thi s credit will be paid by us.It’s understand that we shall not be responsible for the form,scope,validity enforce ability and the enforcement of such trust receipt.四，信用证规定的某些单据必须由进口商或者代理人签署才能办理押汇的（大家经常碰到的）有时信用证规定，某些单据必须由进口商等出具或签字，我们出口商才能办理信用证下的押汇。

如，Inspection Certificate to be issued by XXX Trading Co.,或Commercial invoice to be countersigned by the buyer.五，信用证下的付款时间不确定有的信用证虽然承诺向出口商付款，但是到底什么时候付款，他又不说。
